Just curious, do you suspect overpricing or the price is right? And what is the good price for ISO 9001 certification then?

The term 'certification' covers a multitude of aspects:-

The 'price' of implementation? - it's different for each organization

The 'price' of the CB audit? - should be fairly similar in each 'region'

The 'price' of the certificate? (some CB's don't charge a 'certificate fee')

Ultimately, the customer/market 'regulates' the price.

Or you can consider the 'price' to a business of not being certified...

"Price" is a term associated with something that will gradually lose its value and eventually will be disposed of. The proper word is an "investment" associated with designing, implementing and certification of a Quality Management System to which the organization is entitled a return. The financial return is directly related to the amount of effort Top Management is prepared to put forth and the unwavering commitment it demonstrates.

No. There is a guide to the number of days an ISO 9001 audit must be (same for 14K, ISO/TS, As9100 etc.) but each CB sets their own prices or an audit day, fees for other associated services etc.

Ok the right term is ‘investment’ but it seems to me that you are saying that there is no possibility of losing money. Are you?

Becoming certified is a strategic decision of management with the intent to add value and obtain customer satisfaction. It's not a gamble.
